When he sought the leadership of the Conservative Party, Andrew Scheer courted anti-abortion supporters by noting his history of voting in favour of pro-life legislation and promising he would allow free votes on the issue by MPs in Parliament.
“I believe 100% that Members of Parliament have the right to bring forward and debate any legislation of importance to them….Moreover, I have committed that all votes on matters of conscience be free votes.” “I find it disgusting and appalling that the Liberals are using this issue to divide Canadians and distract from their record of failure and corruption and scandals.”
“Canadian woman and allies are afraid and deserve to know Scheer and Conservative Party of Canada will see women’s rights as human rights and not reopen debate or find back door,” said Status of Women Minister Maryam Monsef. “I was proud to support Molly’s law. That is an important piece of legislation and I’d like to see if before the House again.”
The anti-abortion group Campaign Life Coalition said it hopes MPs will be free to vote their conscience on abortion.

The choice comes before the penis not after. Grow the hell up leftists. Pregnancy is easily preventable. Also, no one is interested in challenging the status quo - so this entire storey is about creating a controversy where none exists and smearing conservatives as usual. 🙄
That and $5.00 will get you a cup of coffee at Starbucks.
It’s OK to lie to be elected, nowadays.
Is that what Steve told you to say ?
Better than pro-death!!
Wow being demonized for being prolife! Can’t people understand that having personal views does not mean that this means others views are rejected. So if the majority are pro choice then it is a non issue as it is in Canada! Move on!
Hey, Sheer: Go give birth a couple times and then get back to us.
I don’t trust him as far as I could throw him.
How dare he be pro life!?!? How dare he have an opinion on this!!!
But he won’t answer CTVNews questions on whether he’d allow pro-life bills from Pro-life-backed MPs. If it’s no, as he says he ‘won’t reopen debate’, then he could say so.
LylajoyRose Nothing wrong with being pro life. Every pro choice person should thank there mom for being pro life
That's too bad.
He is not 'pro-life.' Stop using that term, please.
Smart guy ...

Scheer’s Economic Pitch: An Energy Corridor To Get Pipelines BuiltAndrew Scheer pitches energy corridor to get pipelines built No thanks, not if he threatens to cut-off supply to Canadian provinces. If he is going to engage in exertion and strong arming tactics against captive customers, them I'm afraid we must insist on healthy competition in the sector. BC can't afford the concentration risk! This is a red herring that his media backers keep pushing! It’s DOA! Provinces and indigenous groups are calling it a “pipe dream”! There are also vows of years of legal battles but those that love CONservatives will keep throwing this out there!! That would be believable if there were the refineries to process heavy oil in the East, but there isn’t and it makes no sense investing them now, this late in the fossil fuel game. So the pipelines would be for export, just as they’re planned to be.

Tories won't reopen abortion issue: ScheerConservative Leader Andrew Scheer says his party won't reopen the abortion issue if it forms the next government. I wish people would quit comparing what is going on in the US with the Tories. If you think they're the same, investigate a bit would ya? Tories state they won't reopen abortion issue. But no one believes them as they attend pro-life demonstrations, pro-life American movies, and pro-life states they are getting the support of the CPC. Nice lie Andy. Trudeau is using the policies of a foreign government to emotionally and psychologically manipulate Canadians over an issue which has nothing to do with this country at all. Scheer didn't start this conversation. The Trudeau 'Liberals' did because they think Canadians are stupid
